World 5-2

Star Coins

Star Coin 1

The first Star Coin is below a set of red, yellow, and blue panels, and guarded by six Piranha Plants. When the plants are inside their pipes, run in and take the coin.

Star Coin 2

Near the checkpoint, jump on a Lakitu and take his cloud. Fly up a little to the left to find a P switch. Hit it and follow the blue coins up to a pipe. Inside the pipe is the second Star Coin, again guarded by six Piranha Plants. Jump on the Koopa Troopa above and throw his shell down to kill the plants (or simply lob fireballs if you have a Fire Flower). Then drop down and grab your prize.

Star Coin 3

After you've snared the second Star Coin, head right and you will be met by two Lakitus. Jump on one, take his cloud, and go as far up and right as you can (if it runs out, you should be able to find another close to where you land). Eventually, you will see a vertical line of coins that lead to a pipe. Inside, borrow a cloud from one of the trio of Lakitus and swoop down to grab the coin in the middle of this area.
